Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7 III Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, its tough to picture the gap between sensor measurements just by checking specifications. The graphic here should offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7 III.
Plainly, both of these cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-H2S featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X-H2S will give you more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-H2S provides an advantage in sensor innovation.
